A gasoline dieselhi-octane dispensing unit can have more than one hose; and the nozzles attached at the end of these hoses are inserted in the vehicle's fuel tank for the fuelling process. The material chosen to manufacture hoses can be as such, that it can withstand harsh weather conditions, and wear and tear over a long period. The nozzles may be colour-coded to distinguish which type and grade of fuel are they going to dispense. Colour coding may vary from country to country and company to company. Nozzle sizes differ in order to avoid accidental pumping of incompatible fuel within a tank. Generally, a diesel-pumping nozzle is larger and it cannot fit in a small sized gasoline fuel inlet of a gasoline-vehicle.

Modern technology allows gas pumps and dispensers, to have display features and human machine interfaces, which enable consumers to interact with them and be as user friendly as possible. Magnetic card readers enable customers to use their creditdebit cards for eased payments. While using these features customers can also get to check their transactions by entering their identification through numeric keypads. A modern day fuel dispensing equipment can even blend or mix two fuels in the right or predefined proportion before dispensing (relatively for particular predefined vehicles). An electronically controlled flow meter controls the accurate flow of the fuel amount that is to be pumped-in, in an automotive. Modern fuel dispensers are also equipped with a sensor-fit tube, which runs inside of the nozzle. The function of this tube is to cut off the flow of fuel as soon as the tank is full. Automatic Cut-Off is very necessary as it prevents the fuel from spilling out of the tank.Fuel dispensing equipmenteven contains the mechanism to prevent vapour loss of gasoline into the air by keeping the outflow speed in check (neither too fast nor too slow)!

These are some of the positive attributes related to fuel dispensers which are constantly being upgraded with time for better usability and reliability as well. Safety is always kept first applied with the concept of efficiency while the transfer process takes place.
